Saint Matty 76

If we don't win the cup and therefore qualify for the Europa League, this current squad is too big to keep everybody happy. Quite a few would have to leave in my opinion.

Why on earth would you sell Austin, let alone for £3m.

Starting to get slight hope of it dropping down to Members +2. Looks like there's a lot left right now but I guess that's another 5 criteria to go, fingers crossed!

Let's get Mancini please.

Now yes, the story Gabbiadini has come to an end. After having approached , Naples and Southampton have now reached an agreement for the transfer of the player based on 17 million plus 3 easy walking bonuses linked also to the goals that will mark the attacker. The player is ready to fly to England for him begins a new adventure starting from medical visits scheduled for tomorrow.

Looks like I'm going to have to buy a very expensive ticket on Stubhub.

Ward-Prowse has been embarrassing today.

No?

Happy with the midfield and attack, defence isn't inspiring though.

Think he's just wearing someone elses tracksuit.

Wonder if we'll end up with Dembele from Celtic in the Summer, really hope so.

He's the only player in our team who you think could regularly produce a bit of brilliance to win us a game (fair play to Rodriguez against Bournemouth but can't see that happening again). We'll miss him a lot, hope we get someone in on loan quick.

Hojbjerg - Romeu - Schneiderlin Tadic - NEW - Boufal Looks nice in practice, maybe a bit too defensive and not enough pace in there. May have to be a case of Romeu or Schneiderlin (if it ever happened that is).

Nice effort from Rodriguez there, hopefully gives him a bit of confidence.

He was desperately unlucky with the 2nd attempt, great awareness to bring the ball down and just a freak save from Stekelenburg really. First was awful though.

Brilliant stuff from Yoshida. Get in Austin!

Just managed to pick up two Inter tickets for £10 each in the restricted view area they're advertising. Two 6ft+ people in Row B surely aren't going to struggle to see over the bigger advertising boards are they?

Weird team from City, remarkably attacking. Could be effective with Redmond on the counter and then eventually Boufal.

Crazy to think I was 12 when I signed up to this, explains the username at least.

Hope we don't struggle to keep up the domination here, tend to sit back on 1-0 leads a lot (other than West Ham). Need another goal soon-ish and then really get at them.

Not going Austin's way right now, fancy him to get one second half though.

Too much confidence.

What are you on about...

So unlucky from Austin, what an effort.

Think that's our strongest team with the exception of Boufal and the question of Redmond or Long. Very happy with that. Their full-backs look very week too.
